Is there any treatment for kidney failure without dialysis?

Are you looking for an effective treatment for kidney failure without dialysis?

Dialysis is a treatment that you need to frequently do to cleanse your blood. You need to go to the dialysis center and spend 3 hours on the procedure everytime.

These frequent visits are both physically and emotionally draining.

Moreover, dialysis becomes too inconvenient and expensive to undergo especially if it is required multiple times in a week. 

Even after undergoing all the pains of dialysis, you are just managing your creatine levels and as the time progresses the frequency of dialysis is going to increase. 

Eventually, you would require a Renal transplant. Renal transplant is much more pain fully emotionally. You need to expect an organ from your very own family to whom you have been always giving something so far.

What if you are able to get the root cause solved in the initial stages of the disease?

You would not only be able to avoid dialysis but also would be able to avoid the need of renal transplant in future. 

Unlike dialysis which does not offer a cure for kidney failure, the latest technological advancements in stem cell therapy has helped several people with chronic kidney failure to avoid dialysis by improving the kidney function. 

By virtue of the science behind stem cells, stem cell therapy attempts to correct the root cause of the problem and improves your kidney function.

Since Kidney function is improved, the need for dialysis would not be there. The long term complications of kidney failure and your quality of life would also improve. You would be able to spend your time, emotional, and physical energies with your near and dear ones.

Let us now understand how stem cell therapy works to improve kidney function.

How does stem cell therapy work to help improve your kidney function?

The kidney is an essential organ that helps in eliminating waste from the body. But sometimes when kidneys fail to function properly the toxin wastes from the body. This inability of the kidney to function appropriately is termed kidney failure.

But have you ever wondered how stem cell therapy works to improve your kidney function? Stem cells have amazing regenerative power. It is these stem cells that are responsible for the growth of a fertilized into a child. These stem cells are also responsible for the growth of the child to an adult. These stem cells play a crucial role in healing and repair of damaged cells that might have occurred as a wear and tear.

But as we grow the stem cells become limited to bone marrow and in the fat tissues. However for the stem cell treatment your doctor harvest these stem cells either from the bone marrow or fat cells. Once harvested these stem cells are processed in the labs and are then injected at the affected site.

When you get treated with stem cells for your kidney failure, the regenerative stem cells initiate the repair and regeneration of the damaged kidney cells. These self-renewing stem cells replace and repair the kidney cells into healthy kidney cells. Once the cells are repaired they start functioning efficiently like before.

Is the new treatment for kidney failure, stem cell therapy a long-term treatment for kidney failure?

Yes! Stem cell therapy has emerged as a long-term treatment for kidney failure because stem cell therapy does not just manage the symptoms it helps in repairing the damaged cells. Once the damaged cells are replaced by healthy kidney cells the kidneys start to function like before. 

Since the cell-based treatment replaces the diseased cell the efficacy of the treatment is long and its effect may last for around 10-15 years.

Stem cell therapy is not a surgical procedure but it is a zero cut needle based procedure.  

What are the benefits of stem cell treatment for kidney failure?

The cell-based therapy for kidney failure has several benefits, like:

• It decreases the inflammation in the body
• Efficient removal of toxins from the body
• Restoration of normal kidney function

Apart from the above-mentioned benefits stem cell therapy helps you in restoring normal kidney function without undergoing a kidney transplant. This procedure also saves you from going on a mad goose hunt to find an appropriate kidney donor.

What is the right time for me to undergo stem cell therapy?

It is always better to undergo stem cell therapy for your kidney failure. Stem cell therapy works better and faster if you initiate this therapy at an early stage. 

During the initial stage there is minimal damage to the kidney cells. By starting stem cell therapy at an early stage there is minimal damage to the kidney cells. Since there is minimal damage to the cells, recovery is faster. However, when the treatment starts late the recovery takes a longer time.

Are you a good candidate for stem cell therapy for kidney failure?

Stem cell therapy is a safe treatment for kidney failure without dialysis and kidney transplant. However, sometimes stem cell therapy is not advisable for a few people who:

• Are more than 75 years
• Have chronic kidney failure
• Are you on any steroid medication
• Have any underlying severe comorbidity
• History of cancer

What are the factors you should consider before selecting a doctor for your stem cell treatment for kidney failure?

Since cell-based therapy is a new procedure only a few doctors and researchers practice it. 

Stem cell practitioners have studied this treatment procedure and have their specializations and hence can deliver good results only in specific conditions. 

Therefore, you need to select a stem cell expert who has consistently delivered good results in kidney failure treatment.

Conclusion:

We understand that living with kidney failure is distressful and your desire to look for treatment for kidney failure without undergoing dialysis. With stem cell therapy you can skip the overwhelming dialysis which typically requires you to travel to the hospital frequently. Also by taking stem cell therapy you delay your need to undergo a kidney transplant for another ten to fifteen years.
